the present work studied the application of membrane bioreactor (mbr) for tapioca wastewater processing that contained chemical oxygen demand (cod) ranging from 4000-9000 mg/l. a preliminary study was initially conducted in order to evaluate membrane performance with respect to its flux with mlss concentration ranging from 4,500 to 10,500 mg/l. it was clear that fouling was observed during the ...

background: conventional wastewater treatment is a combination of physical and biological processes designed to remove organic matter from solution. waste sludge drawn from these processes is thickened and processed for ultimate disposal wastewater contains various kinds of infectious agents, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. correct treatment in wastewater treatment plants is imp...

The degradation of seven compounds which are usually recalcitrant in classical activated sludge treatment (e.g., diclofenac, propranolol, iopromide, iohexol, iomeprol tebuconazole and propiconazole) was studied in a biofilm reactor (slow sand filtration). This reactor was used to treat real effluent-wastewater at different flow rates (hydraulic loadings) under aerobic conditions so removal and ...

The present work aimed to evaluate the efficiency of an agro-industrial waste biosorbent in removal real textile wastewater. A model sample with methylene blue and remazol golden yellow at equimolar proportions was prepared be treated natura, carbonized, activated lemon peel beads. Activated demonstrated superior capacity rates. Characterization analyses investigated morphology physico-chemical...

results the results showed that the fog amount in input raw sewage in the mwwtp from june 2011 to september 2011 was around 25.5 mg/l and the amount in treated wastewater was about 8.1 mg/l. the fog removal efficiency in this refinery was about 70% and met the environmental standards for the discharge (less than 10 mg/l) (p < 0.05). conclusions the effluent can be discharged to surface waters o...

evaluation and modeling of the wastewater treatment plants (wwtp) have to be based on thefact that the pollutant concentrations and flow rates change constantly. in addition, different approaches mustused due to there are different processes in a wwtp. a mexican petrochemical complex has a wwtp thatprocesses wastewaters from several petrochemical plants, where the flow rates and pollutant conce...

phosphorus is an important nutrient for plant and microorganisms growth, thus has an important role in creating eutrophication of surface waters. the present study has investigated poly aluminum chloride efficiency on orthophosphate removal by coagulation and chemical precipitation process in municipal wastewater in west wastewater treatment plant. this bench scale study was performed on influe...

this research, in addition to survey the existing data on the quality of sahebgharanieh wastewater treatment plant's effluent in the previous years, by runing a three months monitoring stage, studies the conditions of the final settling and aeration basin and the variations of the influent and effluent quantity and quality in removing of major pollutants (bod, cod, tss), while scrutinizing the ...
